Hey Guys,
Here's the scene outlines we've got so far, I thought we could use this as a base and edit our scenes as we go along. I kind of got carried away and did an outline for all of them while i had the time. Please add in anything else that I could incorporate, and any ideas in the scene write them in green and then discuss them on a discussion pages if we want to alaborate them. If something needs to be added by someone else, eg their lines, put in red so we can clearly see them! Any stagecraft stuff that needs to be created, like put on the powerpoint put in blue.
Thanks :) Karena
